Carson and Willette were just about to come to Severin's aid when the scene that unfolded before them left them speechless and dumbfounded."Just how strong is he? He put in nearly zero effort to subdue that half-immortal puppet," Carson exclaimed in shock as he was overcome with turmoil.They had both suffered at the hands of Wendigo's puppet and barely escaped with their lives, but Severin had reduced it to ashes in just a single move. Such strength was frightening, to say the least.Willette, who was still reeling from the shock, gulped and asked, "Have you become an immortal?"He understood the Wendigo puppet before them to be immensely powerful, as his combined effort with Carson was not enough to breach the puppet's defenses, let alone defeat it. One could imagine how shocked Willette was when Severin had annihilated it so effortlessly."Not yet," Severin replied, smiling faintly at their astonished expressions. He had just attained half-immortality, completed the second of
"Curses! What is taking the Grandiuno Sacred Land so long?!" The Alaric seethed with anger and frustration, while his emotions tinged with an inexplicable fear.Cuthbert had been sent over from the Grandiuno Sacred Land a day ago but had to retreat after being bested by the corpse puppet. In order to stay alive, Abner and Alaric defended against the puppet, but their battle stretched across a day and a night without any signs of progress.Instead, their spiritual energy reserves were dwindling dangerously low, hence their mounting apprehension. The corpse puppet had spent over half a month relentlessly slaughtering practitioners and civilians in Eastplain, which led to an increase in its intelligence and power.The puppet grinned menacingly. "You are both very resilient. Your deaths are the perfect offerings for the flag!"No sooner had it spoken than the corpse puppet materialized before Abner. Clouded in a dense, dark green, poisonous mist, the puppet had virtually teleported acr
Abner gulped and his eyes widened. He rubbed his eyes and wondered if he had been hallucinating. The corpse puppet, whose power was comparable to that of several half-immortals, had been destroyed with relative ease by Severin!Alaric, who wielded a pair of swords as his divine protective weapon, stood stunned at Severin's feat. As he glanced at the corpse that had sliced in half and noticed that its primal spirit was all but destroyed, he muttered blankly, "It's…dead?"Abner and Alaric looked at Severin in horror, as they had the honor of experienced Severin's master over time and space. With space sealed and time frozen, it was as if all physical matter had ceased to exist in the world, leaving only the presence of their consciousness. It was an almost omnipotent power that would send chills down everyone's spine.After confirming that the puppet had been genuinely destroyed, Severin withdrew the domain that had had frozen using his space-time path. The Golden Balance Bridge benea
Carson and Willette had rushed there immediately after sensing the aura from the battle, but their divine senses failed to detect any signs of the corpse puppet.Severin smiled and offered no words.The space-time domain carried unbridled power that, once unleashed, rendered those on the outside of the domain unable to sense what was happening within. It served both offensive and defensive purposes that was rightly considered a trump card in his arsenal.Though the corpse puppet crafted after Xavier's remains was indeed very strong, Severin's space-time domain was inescapable for anyone who was not immortal, who did not comprehend the flow of time, or who were never exposed to the rules of time.Severin's silence led Carson to feel a pang of embarrassment. He made such a huge declaration of vengeance against the corpse puppet, only to learn that his junior uncle had already dealt with it.Carson did not doubt Severin's abilities as the memory of Severin obliterating the Wendigo wa
Meanwhile, Severin battled against the biting cold wind and pressed forward with a determined look. The icy gusts of the ancient icefield assailed him, lashing his entire body and leaving him riddled with wounds. Yet, Severin was impervious to the pain. He was driven by a singular determination to continue moving forward.Behind him, Carson and Willette exchanged a glance while guarding him. They had noticed the distinct lack of fluctuations in Severin's mana which gave the impression that Severin was just an ordinary mortal.Carson began to notice something amiss with Severin throughout the entire journey. From his initial perplexity when Severin chose to walk like a mortal in Eastplain to their trek across the icefield, Carson found himself increasingly astonished by Severin's demeanor. That stemmed, in large part, due to the face that Severin's aura could not be sensed at all, regardless of how much he sensed it!If Severin was not walking right before his eyes, then Carson might
As the Ancestora peered through the scenes witnessed by the two puppets before their demise, his face reddened in anger and a surge of murderous intent erupted from his eyes."Damn you, Severin!" he bellowed as his primal spirit shook violently while veins popped out from his forehead. "If I didn't have to seek the world's origin in the river of time and condition my body for the Bleurealm by stabilizing the Seven Stars Upside Down Formation, I would have sliced his head off myself!"Even the combined might of all half-immortals in the Bleurealm paled in comparison to a true immortal like him, let alone a single half-immortal such as Severin.The chasm between a true immortal and a half-immortal dwarfed the disparities across all levels. One could liken it to the gulf between royal saint and supreme paragon.With two half-immortal corpse puppets taken down within just over a month, his plan to wield control over Bleurealm had to be delayed yet again.As one would expect, the Ances
Severin looked at the Three Thousand Mighty Principles floating above the River of Time. His eyes glimmered with joy. How magnificent it was!Gradually, the Three Thousand Mighty Principles flowed toward the distant mists. Countless rules fluttered above the River of Time, drifting down like a golden avenue of golden light. That lofty, vast, and boundless aura struck the soul and made it impossible for anyone to fight back.Severin was overjoyed and shocked. 'I can't believe the River of Time in the Inner World can merge with the River of Time in the Bleurealm and become one of the distributaries!'What an unexpected discovery it was! His Inner World was not a real world just yet. Although it had a simulated River of Time, the Three Thousand Mighty Principles were not completed.Those principles were still seeds. Even those principles like swordsmanship, luck, and space-time of which Severin was more hands-on were only at the Great Success stage.Now that the simulated River of Ti
The elders from Floating Light Sacred Land and Darklight Sacred Land of the Midland were nearly killed in the battle too. Half of the Midland was occupied by the Ancestora and the living beings there were being slaughtered too.Adrian and Amethyst sent many messages to Carson and Willette since the battle was getting closer to the sect. They assured Carson and Willette not to worry about the battle and focused on protecting Severin. Without those messages, Carson and Willette would have left Severin and joined the battle in Midland.Carson heard Willette's murmuring voice and looked over to see Severin. At that moment, he could not help but feel anxious too."How much longer is Severin going to walk?" Carson sighed helplessly.While he was feeling worried, he noticed a mysterious power bursting out from Severin's body. It gave him a shock. As he was about to take a closer look with his divine sense, countless rules burst out from Severin's body.The crimson Fire Principle emitted
